About the Dortmund – Odesa route
The Dortmund – Odesa bus is the return service from the Ruhr to Ukraine's Black Sea coast. Boarding is at the bus station by Dortmund's main railway terminal; the route then heads east along motorways through Germany and Poland, crosses the Ukrainian-Polish border and continues through western Ukraine to Odesa — usually with a transfer in Lviv or Khmelnytskyi. It carries labour migrants and families living in North Rhine-Westphalia. Given the length of the trip, bring water, snacks and a charger. Tickets are sold as a reservation: lock in a seat online, pay the driver in cash at boarding.
